#1 The fashion critic won a Pulitzer? Absurd -- she never got past the waspish, "she ought to be wearing my fave labels," stage. And she was wrong, too -- her fave labels were completely unsuitable for Mrs. Robert's body type, and questionable for that situation. In my opinion, of course, and admittedly I've never been anywhere near a Pulitzer, although I might've got my name near a patent once. ;-)

#4 TW -- well, she did win, not for fashion, but for criticism---

For distinguished criticism, in print or in print and online, Ten thousand dollars ($10,000).

"Awarded to Robin Givhan of The Washington Post for her witty, closely observed essays that transform fashion criticism into cultural criticism."

She submitted 10 articles that included Cheney's hunting dress, Rice in those incredible black boots and Mrs. Roberts.

I know, it doesn't make sense, but then, none of the decisions did. Bet this guy submits this "for criticism."
